3.2 “Lab-on-a-Chip” A Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) device‚ also known as a micro-total-analytical system (microTAS) or microfluidics device‚ is a device that can integrate miniaturized laboratory functions (such as separation and analysis of components of a mixture) on a single microprocessor chip using extremely small fluid volumes on the order of nanoliters to picoliters. From a technology categorization perspective‚ LOCs can be viewed as a subset of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and combine

Oscilloscope _ An oscilloscope (also known as a scope‚ CRO‚ DSO or‚ an O-scope) is a type of electronic test instrument that allows observation of constantly varying signal voltages‚ usually as a two-dimensional graph of one or more electrical potential differences using the vertical or ’Y’ axis‚ plotted as a function of time‚ (horizontal or ’x’ axis). Although an oscilloscope displays voltage on its vertical axis‚ any other quantity that can be converted to a voltage can be displayed as well

into a beam)‚ a magnetic coil (which uses a voltage to create a magnetic field that deflects the beam away from the center line)‚ and a phosphorus screen (which illuminates when the beam comes in contact with it). The electron source contains an electrically heated filament (cathode) and an anode to create an electron source and control the intensity (brightness) of an electron beam. Between the two‚ is the accelerating voltage (?Va). This voltage determines the velocity of the electron beam. The electrons

But first of all‚ we have to understand hoe the deflection of the jet generates a force on the bucket‚ and how the force is related to the rate of momentum flow in the jet. The purpose of this experiment is exactly to measure out the reaction force generated by a jet of water striking on a solid surface with different degrees of flow deflection‚ and compare the results with the Theoretical

The slenderness involves not only the height of the column‚ but also the size and shape of its cross-section and the manner in which the two ends of the column are supported or fixed.
